\section{Introduction} |
85 |
|
|
86 |
< |
The Coulomb electrostatic interaction is of importance in a number of physical chemistry problems |
87 |
< |
[background needed, do we mention gases, liquids, solids?]. |
86 |
> |
There is increasing interest in real-space methods for calculating |
87 |

electrostatic interactions in computer simulations of condensed |
88 |

systems.\cite{Wolf99,Zahn02,Kast03,BeckD.A.C._bi0486381,Ma05,Fennell:2006zl,Chen:2004du,Chen:2006ii,Rodgers:2006nw,Denesyuk:2008ez,Izvekov:2008wo} |
90 |

The simplest of these techniques was developed by Wolf {\it et al.} |
91 |

in their work towards an $\mathcal{O}(N)$ Coulombic sum.\cite{Wolf99} |
92 |

modification to Wolf's method could give nearly quantitative agreement |

of interest in Monte Carlo (i.e., configurational energy differences) |
96 |

and Molecular Dynamics (i.e., atomic force and molecular torque |
97 |

vectors).\cite{Fennell:2006zl} |

The computational efficiency and the accuracy of the DSF method are |
100 |

surprisingly good, particularly for systems with uniform charge |

density. Additionally, dielectric constants obtained using DSF and |
102 |

essentially quantitative.\cite{Izvekov:2008wo} The DSF and other |
104 |

related methods have now been widely investigated,\cite{Hansen:2012uq} |
105 |

and DSF is now used routinely in simulations of ionic |

115 |
< |
The methods that we develop in this paper are meant specifically for problems involving interacting rigid molecules which will be described |
116 |
< |
in terms of classical mechanics and electrodynamics. From mechanics, the molecule's mass distribution |
117 |
< |
determines its total mass and moment of inertia tensor. |
118 |
< |
From electrostatics, its charge distribution is conveniently described using multipoles. |
119 |
< |
Our goal is to advance methods for handling inter-molecular interactions in molecular dynamics simulations. |
120 |
< |
To do this, we must develop consistent approximate equations for |
121 |
< |
interaction energies, forces, and torques. |
115 |
> |
One common feature of many coarse-graining approaches, which treat |
116 |
> |
entire molecular subsystems as a single rigid body, is simplification |
117 |
> |
of the electrostatic interactions between these bodies so that fewer |
118 |
> |
site-site interactions are required to compute configurational |
119 |
> |
energies. Notably, the force matching approaches of Voth and coworkers |
120 |
> |
are an exciting development in their ability to represent realistic |
121 |
> |
(and {\it reactive}) chemical systems for very large length scales and |
122 |
> |
long times. This approach utilized a coarse-graining in interaction |
123 |
> |
space (CGIS) which fits an effective force for the coarse grained |
124 |
> |
system using a variational force-matching method to a fine-grained |
125 |

simulation.\cite{Izvekov:2008wo} |

|
135 |
< |
This paper extends the shifted-force potential method |
136 |
< |
of Fennel and Gezelter to higher-order multipole interactions. [describe?] |
137 |
< |
Extending an idea from Wolf, multipole images are placed on the surface of a |
138 |
< |
``cutoff'' sphere of radius $r_c$. These images are used to make all interaction energies, forces, and torques |
139 |
< |
be zero for $r < r_c$. |
140 |
< |
Two such methods have been developed, both based on Taylor-series expansions. |
141 |
< |
The first is applied to the Coulomb kernel of the multipole expansion. The second is |
142 |
< |
applied to individual terms for interaction energies in the multipole expansion. |
143 |
< |
Because of differences in the initial assumptions, the two methods yield different results. |
135 |
> |
Ichiye and coworkers have recently introduced a number of very fast |
136 |
> |
water models based on a ``sticky'' multipole model which are |
137 |
> |
qualitatively better at reproducing the behavior of real water than |
138 |
> |
the more common point-charge models (SPC/E, TIPnP). The point charge |
139 |
> |
models are also substantially more computationally demanding than the |
140 |
> |
sticky multipole |
141 |
> |
approach.\cite{Chowdhuri:2006lr,Te:2010rt,Te:2010ys,Te:2010vn} The |
142 |
> |
SSDQO model requires the use of an approximate multipole expansion |
143 |
> |
(AME) as the exact multipole expansion is quite expensive |
144 |
> |
(particularly when handled via the Ewald sum).\cite{Ichiye:2006qy} |
145 |
> |
Another particularly important use of point multipoles (and multipole |
146 |
> |
polarizability) is in the very high-quality AMOEBA water model and |
147 |
> |
related force fields.\cite{Ponder:2010fk,schnieders:124114,Ren:2011uq} |
148 |
|
|
149 |
< |
Also explored here is the effect of replacing the bare Coulomb kernel with that of a smeared |
150 |
< |
charge distribution. Thus four methods are compared in this paper: |
151 |
< |
(1) Shifted force, Coulomb, method 1; |
152 |
< |
(2) Sihfted force, Coulomb, method 2; |
153 |
< |
(3) Shifted force, smeared charge, method 1; and |
154 |
< |
(4) Shifted force, smeared charge, method 2. |
115 |
< |
The last of these methods is our preferred method and is called the Extended Shifted Force Method. |
116 |
< |
Subsequent papers will apply this method to various problems of physical and chemical interest. |
149 |
> |
Higher-order multipoles present a peculiar issue for molecular |
150 |
> |
dynamics. Multipolar interactions are inherently short-ranged, and |
151 |
> |
should not need the relatively expensive Ewald treatment. However, |
152 |
> |
real-space cutoff methods are normally applied in an orientation-blind |
153 |
> |
fashion so multipoles which leave and then re-enter a cutoff sphere in |
154 |
> |
a different orientation can cause energy discontinuities. |
155 |
|
|
156 |
< |
[...] |
156 |
> |
This paper outlines an extension of the original DSF electrostatic |
157 |
> |
kernel to point multipoles. We present in this paper two distinct |
158 |
> |
real-space interaction models for higher-order multipoles based on two |
159 |
> |
truncated Taylor expansions that are carried out at the cutoff radius. |
160 |
> |
We are calling these models {\bf Taylor-shifted} and {\bf |
161 |
> |
Gradient-shifted} electrostatics. Because of differences in the |
162 |
> |
initial assumptions, the two methods yield related, but different |
163 |
> |
expressions for energies, forces, and torques. |

\subsection{Self-neutralization, damping, and force-shifting} |
168 |
|
|
169 |
+ |
The DSF and Wolf methods operate by neutralizing the total charge |
170 |
+ |
contained within the cutoff sphere surrounding each particle. This is |
171 |
+ |
accomplished by shifting the potential functions to generate image |
172 |
+ |
charges on the surface of the cutoff sphere for each pair interaction |
173 |
+ |
computed within $R_\textrm{c}$. An Ewald-like complementary error |
174 |
+ |
function damping is applied to the potential to accelerate |
175 |
+ |
convergence. The potential for the DSF method, where $\alpha$ is the |
176 |
+ |
adjustable damping parameter, is given by |
177 |
+ |
\begin{equation*} |
178 |
+ |
V_\mathrm{DSF}(r) = C_a C_b \Biggr{[} |
179 |
+ |
\frac{\mathrm{erfc}\left(\alpha r_{ij}\right)}{r_{ij}} |
180 |
+ |
- \frac{\mathrm{erfc}\left(\alpha R_\mathrm{c}\right)}{R_\mathrm{c}} + \left(\frac{\mathrm{erfc}\left(\alpha R_\mathrm{c}\right)}{R_\mathrm{c}^2} |
181 |
+ |
+ \frac{2\alpha}{\pi^{1/2}} |
182 |
+ |
\frac{\exp\left(-\alpha^2R_\mathrm{c}^2\right)}{R_\mathrm{c}} |
183 |
+ |
\right)\left(r_{ij}-R_\mathrm{c}\right)\ \Biggr{]} |
184 |
+ |
\label{eq:DSFPot} |
185 |
+ |
\end{equation*} |
186 |
+ |
|
187 |
+ |
To insure net charge neutrality within each cutoff sphere, an |
188 |
+ |
additional ``self'' term is added to the potential. This term is |
189 |
+ |
constant (as long as the charges and cutoff radius do not change), and |
190 |
+ |
exists outside the normal pair-loop for molecular simulations. It can |
191 |
+ |
be thought of as a contribution from a charge opposite in sign, but |
192 |
+ |
equal in magnitude, to the central charge, which has been spread out |
193 |
+ |
over the surface of the cutoff sphere. A portion of the self term is |
194 |
+ |
identical to the self term in the Ewald summation, and comes from the |
195 |
+ |
utilization of the complimentary error function for electrostatic |
196 |
+ |
damping.\cite{deLeeuw80,Wolf99} |

\subsection{Multipole Expansion} |
207 |
|
|
208 |
< |
Consider two discrete rigid collections of atoms and ions, denoted as objects $\bf a$ and $\bf b$. |
209 |
< |
In the following, we assume |
210 |
< |
that the two objects only interact via electrostatics and describe those interactions in terms of |
211 |
< |
a multipole expansion. Putting the origin of the coordinate system at the center of mass of $\bf a$, we use |
212 |
< |
vectors $\mathbf{r}_k$ to denote the positions of all charges $q_k$ in $\bf a$. |
213 |
< |
Then the electrostatic potential of object $\bf a$ at $\mathbf{r}$ is given by |
208 |

> |
a$. Then the electrostatic potential of object $\bf a$ at |
215 |
> |
$\mathbf{r}$ is given by |
216 |
|
\begin{equation} |
217 |
|
V_a(\mathbf r) = \frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0} |
218 |
|
\sum_{k \, \text{in \bf a}} \frac{q_k}{\lvert \mathbf{r} - \mathbf{r}_k \rvert}. |
219 |
|
\end{equation} |
220 |
< |
We write the Taylor series expansion in $r$ using an implied summation notation, |
221 |
< |
Greek indices are used to indicate space coordinates $x$, $y$, $z$ and the subscripts |
222 |
< |
$k$ and $j$ are reserved for labelling specific charges in $\bf a$ and $\bf b$ respectively, and find: |

|
\right) |
230 |
|
\frac{1}{r} . |
231 |
|
\end{equation} |
232 |
< |
We then follow Smith in defining an operator for the expansion: |
232 |
> |
The electrostatic potential on $\bf a$ can then be expressed in terms |
233 |
> |
of multipole operators, |
234 |
|
\begin{equation} |
235 |
|
V_{\bf a}(\mathbf{r}) = \frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0}\hat{M}_{\bf a} \frac{1}{r} |
236 |

|
\frac{\partial^2}{\partial r_{\alpha} \partial r_{\beta}} + \dots |

< |
and the charge $C_{\bf a}$, dipole $D_{{\bf a}\alpha}$, |
244 |
< |
and quadrupole $Q_{{\bf a}\alpha\beta}$ are defined by |
243 |
> |
Here, the point charge, dipole, and quadrupole for object $\bf a$ are |
244 |
> |
given by $C_{\bf a}$, $D_{{\bf a}\alpha}$, and $Q_{{\bf |
245 |
> |
a}\alpha\beta}$, respectively. These can be tied to distribution |
246 |
> |
of charges |
247 |
|
\begin{equation} |
248 |
|
C_{\bf a}=\sum_{k \, \text{in \bf a}} q_k , |
249 |
|
\end{equation} |
492 |
|
We find the first form to be useful in writing equations prior to converting to computer code. The second form is helpful |
493 |
|
in derivations of the interaction energy expressions. The third one is specifically helpful when deriving forces and torques, as will |
494 |
|
be discussed below. |
495 |
+ |
|
496 |
+ |
|
497 |
+ |
\section{The Self-Interaction} |
498 |
+ |
The Wolf summation~\cite{Wolf99} and the later damped shifted force |
499 |
+ |
(DSF) extension~\cite{Fennell06} included self-interactions that are |
500 |
+ |
handled separately from the pairwise interactions between sites. The |
501 |
+ |
self-term is normally calculated via a single loop over all sites in |
502 |
+ |
the system, and is relatively cheap to evaluate. The self-interaction |
503 |
+ |
has contributions from two sources: |
504 |
+ |
\begin{itemize} |
505 |
+ |
\item The neutralization procedure within the cutoff radius requires a |
506 |
+ |
contribution from a charge opposite in sign, but equal in magnitude, |
507 |
+ |
to the central charge, which has been spread out over the surface of |
508 |
+ |
the cutoff sphere. For a system of undamped charges, the total |
509 |
+ |
self-term is |
510 |
+ |
\begin{equation} |
511 |
+ |
V_\textrm{self} = - \frac{1}{r_c} \sum_{{\bf a}=1}^N C_{\bf a}^{2} |
512 |
+ |
\label{eq:selfTerm} |
513 |
+ |
\end{equation} |
514 |
+ |
Note that in this potential and in all electrostatic quantities that |
515 |
+ |
follow, the standard $4 \pi \epsilon_{0}$ has been omitted for |
516 |
+ |
clarity. |
517 |
+ |
\item Charge damping with the complementary error function is a |
518 |
+ |
partial analogy to the Ewald procedure which splits the interaction |
519 |
+ |
into real and reciprocal space sums. The real space sum is retained |
520 |
+ |
in the Wolf and DSF methods. The reciprocal space sum is first |
521 |
+ |
minimized by folding the largest contribution (the self-interaction) |
522 |
+ |
into the self-interaction from charge neutralization of the damped |
523 |
+ |
potential. The remainder of the reciprocal space portion is then |
524 |
+ |
discarded (as this contributes the largest computational cost and |
525 |
+ |
complexity to the Ewald sum). For a system containing only damped |
526 |
+ |
charges, the complete self-interaction can be written as |
527 |
+ |
\begin{equation} |
528 |
+ |
V_\textrm{self} = - \left(\frac{\textrm{erfc}(\alpha r_c)}{r_c} + |
529 |
+ |
\frac{\alpha}{\sqrt{\pi}} \right) \sum_{{\bf a}=1}^N |
530 |
+ |
C_{\bf a}^{2}. |
531 |
+ |
\label{eq:dampSelfTerm} |
532 |
+ |
\end{equation} |
533 |
+ |
\end{itemize} |
534 |
|
|
535 |
+ |
The extension of DSF electrostatics to point multipoles requires |
536 |
+ |
treatment of {\it both} the self-neutralization and reciprocal |
537 |
+ |
contributions to the self-interaction for higher order multipoles. In |
538 |
+ |
this section we give formulae for these interactions up to quadrupolar |
539 |
+ |
order. |
540 |
+ |
|
541 |
+ |
The self-neutralization term is computed by taking the {\it |
542 |
+ |
non-shifted} kernel for each interaction, placing a multipole of |
543 |
+ |
equal magnitude (but opposite in polarization) on the surface of the |
544 |
+ |
cutoff sphere, and averaging over the surface of the cutoff sphere. |
545 |
+ |
Because the self term is carried out as a single sum over sites, the |
546 |
+ |
reciprocal-space portion is identical to half of the self-term |

For sites which simultaneously contain charges and quadrupoles, the |
572 |
+ |
self-interaction includes a cross-interaction between these two |
573 |
+ |
multipole orders. Symmetry prevents the charge-dipole and |
574 |
+ |
dipole-quadrupole interactions from contributing to the |
575 |
+ |
self-interaction. The functions that go into the self-neutralization |
576 |
+ |
terms, $f(r), g(r), h(r), s(r), \mathrm{~and~} t(r)$ are successive |
577 |
+ |
derivatives of the electrostatic kernel (either the undamped $1/r$ or |
578 |
+ |
the damped $B_0(r)=\mathrm{erfc}(\alpha r)/r$ function) that are |
579 |
+ |
evaluated at the cutoff distance. For undamped interactions, $f(r_c) |
580 |
+ |
= 1/r_c$, $g(r_c) = -1/r_c^{2}$, and so on. For damped interactions, |
581 |
+ |
$f(r_c) = B_0(r_c)$, $g(r_c) = B_0'(r_c)$, and so on. Appendix XX |
582 |

contains recursion relations that allow rapid evaluation of these |
583 |

derivatives. |

\section{Comparison to known multipolar energies} |
1267 |
+ |
|
1268 |
+ |
To understand how these new real-space multipole methods behave in |
1269 |
+ |
computer simulations, it is vital to test against established methods |
1270 |
+ |
for computing electrostatic interactions in periodic systems, and to |
1271 |
+ |
evaluate the size and sources of any errors that arise from the |
1272 |
+ |
real-space cutoffs. In this paper we test Taylor-shifted and |
1273 |
+ |
Gradient-shifted electrostatics against analytical methods for |
1274 |
+ |
computing the energies of ordered multipolar arrays. In the following |
1275 |
+ |
paper, we test the new methods against the multipolar Ewald sum for |
1276 |
+ |
computing the energies, forces and torques for a wide range of typical |
1277 |
+ |
condensed-phase (disordered) systems. |
1278 |
+ |
|
1279 |
+ |
Because long-range electrostatic effects can be significant in |
1280 |
+ |
crystalline materials, ordered multipolar arrays present one of the |
1281 |
+ |
biggest challenges for real-space cutoff methods. The dipolar |
1282 |
+ |
analogues to the Madelung constants were first worked out by Sauer, |
1283 |
+ |
who computed the energies of ordered dipole arrays of zero |
1284 |
+ |
magnetization and obtained a number of these constants.\cite{Sauer} |
1285 |
+ |
This theory was developed more completely by Luttinger and |
1286 |
+ |
Tisza\cite{LT,LT2} who tabulated energy constants for the Sauer arrays and |
1287 |
+ |
other periodic structures. We have repeated the Luttinger \& Tisza |
1288 |
+ |
series summations to much higher order and obtained the following |
1289 |
+ |
energy constants (converged to one part in $10^9$): |
1290 |
+ |

1295 |
+ |
strings of antiparallel dipoles if the dipoles are contained in a |
1296 |

plane perpendicular to the dipole direction that passes through |
1297 |

the dipole.} |

In addition to the A and B arrays, there is an additional minimum |
1321 |
+ |
energy structure for the BCC lattice that was found by Luttinger \& |
1322 |
+ |
Tisza. The total electrostatic energy for an array is given by: |
1323 |
+ |
\begin{equation} |
1324 |
+ |
E = C N^2 \mu^2 |
1325 |
+ |
\end{equation} |
1326 |
+ |
where $C$ is the energy constant given above, $N$ is the number of |
1327 |
+ |
dipoles per unit volume, and $\mu$ is the strength of the dipole. |
1328 |
+ |
|
1329 |
+ |
{\it Quadrupolar} analogues to the Madelung constants were first worked out by Nagai and Nakamura who |
1330 |
+ |
computed the energies of selected quadrupole arrays based on |
1331 |
+ |
extensions to the Luttinger and Tisza |
1332 |
+ |
approach.\cite{Nagai01081960,Nagai01091963} We have compared the |
1333 |
+ |
energy constants for the lowest energy configurations for linear |
1334 |
+ |
quadrupoles shown in table \ref{tab:NNQ} |

1349 |

1350 |

In analogy to the dipolar arrays, the total electrostatic energy for |
1351 |
+ |
the quadrupolar arrays is: |
1352 |
+ |
\begin{equation} |
1353 |
+ |
E = C \frac{3}{4} N^2 Q^2 |
1354 |
+ |
\end{equation} |
1355 |
+ |
where $Q$ is the quadrupole moment. |
